Additional Information
Here is the answers:
1) It was used for processing seaweed juice, separating the solid fraction from the liquid fraction;
2) It was used 3-4 months per year from 2006 to 2010 (5 years). It has been sitting since then. If we have an accepted offer, we will connect it and start it up, taking a video for proof;
3) Capacity and flow rate are very much dependent on the product that is processed, especially the difference in specific gravity of the fractions that need to be separated. Each product is different, in our case the flow rate was less than the 1200 Lt/hr declared by manufacturer, but the differential specific gravity of our solid/liquid fraction was very little.

The decanter is SS and it was used to process seaweed.
Flow rate capacity depends on the differential specific gravity of the liquid fraction and the solid fraction that you want to separate.
The manufacturer told us 1,200 lt/hr, but with our product we only could use it at 400 lt/hr because the specific gravity difference between our solid fraction and the liquid fraction is very little.
The flow rate of a centrifuge depends on the difference between the specific gravity of the fractions that you are trying to separate.
The 1200 Lt/hr is what the manufacturer declares.
Pieralisi are leaders in the manufacturing of centrifuges used in the olive oil industry, so I guess that their 1200 Lt/hr is based on the processing of olive oil.
